Chapter 37- A Perverted Master and a Rebellious Disciple
The old man turned to look at the seedling floating over Sol’s head; his breathing quickening by the second.
It was normal for an Elemental Innate Dharma to take on the shape of certain objects. So, the old man thought Sol had awakened a Wood Type Innate Dharma that took on the appearance of a seedling.
However, in some cases, there were instances where the object an Elemental Innate Dharma took on was a weapon and thus became a Weapon Type Elemental Innate Dharma.
These types of Mixed Innate Dharmas were categorized into the Irregular Type. They were rare, but not impossible to awaken. Now the old man was wondering if this seedling wasn’t just a simple object made of Wood Element, but something significant.
As the old man sunk into his thoughts, it didn’t take long for Sol to realize his Master was agitated, so he asked.
"Master, what’s so strange about this situation? Isn’t it just sensing Spirit Essence?"
The old man snapped his head towards Sol when he heard that.
"Ha! This brat, you say it’s just sensing Spirit Essence? But that’s exactly why this situation is so strange! How can your Innate Dharma, something developed to cultivate Aether, sense another energy? Remember when I said that each energy has its own system someone has to follow to cultivate it? Well, an Innate Dharma is an integral part of cultivating Aether. No, more than that, it’s fundamentally linked with Aether! So, an Innate Dharma sensing anything besides Aether should be impossible. If it was, wouldn’t someone be able to cultivate Mana or even Holy Energy?
"But there’s a fundamental law for these sorts of things. A Heavenly Law! An Empyrean Rule embedded into the very fabric of the Heavens! But this thing..."
The old man at this point was red-faced and was hyperventilating as he pointed at the seedling.
"... this thing has broken that fundamental law!"
